The Sniffle – Ogden Nash

Filed under: Poetry — by cerene @ 1:46 pm

    In spite of her sniffle
    Isabel’s chiffle.
    Some girls with a sniffle
    Would be weepy and tiffle;
    They would look awful,
    Like a rained-on waffle,
    But Isabel’s chiffle
    In spite of her sniffle.
    Her nose is more red
    With a cold in her head,
    But then, to be sure,
    Her eyes are bluer.
    Some girls with a snuffle,
    Their tempers are uffle.
    But when Isabel’s snivelly
    She’s snivelly civilly,
    And when she’s snuffly
    She’s perfectly luffly.
